What Makes Lane Aviation's De-Icing Services Unique
24/7 Availability
We provide de-icing services around the clock during winter conditions, ensuring departures can proceed regardless of the time.
Central Ohio Advantage
Lane Aviation is one of the few facilities in Central Ohio offering comprehensive plane de-icing in Columbus. Smaller airports like OSU and Bolton don’t have the investment in equipment and training required for professional aircraft de-icing and anti-icing operations.
Quick Response and Reliability
Our fleet of professional-grade Premier de-icing trucks are positioned on call at the de-ice pad, ready to respond immediately when aircraft taxi over from the gate. We’ve even provided backup service to other airlines on the field when their equipment wasn’t working. Our designated de-ice frequency is 122.95.
Professional Training
All our staff complete comprehensive training programs with different airlines. We have a de-ice trainer that goes out to all the airlines, goes through the training, comes back, and trains our people on specific driving patterns and procedures. Our team members often tell us they really enjoy the work!
